THE SELLING PROCESS
simplified
Consultation
We'll start with a tour of your home where we’ll learn your story, what you love about your home, and any upgrades you’ve already done. We’ll thoroughly assess what projects should be considered, determine the amount of de-cluttering or staging needed, discuss your timeline and best strategy for selling, evaluate your property & follow up with a personalized prep-plan.
01
Preparing For sale
First impressions are key, so before the ‘for sale’ sign goes up, we will direct you on how to get your home ready for the market with a suggested to-do list and vendor contacts to help complete anything you choose to do. We’ll establish a timeline of when we plan to get your home on the market and keep everyone on track.
02
Positioning Your Home
Our personal commitment is ensuring that your listing is shown in the best possible light, to the greatest number of people, through both professional photography and video.Pricing your home properly from its first day on the market is critical to your success as a seller. Your home will get the most buyer exposure immediately after it’s listed, so pricing it right from the beginning is crucial to achieve the highest return in the least amount of time.
03
OFFER & Negotiation
Our top priority is ensuring that your objectives are fully met. When an offer or offers are generated, together we will review every item in the offer so that you thoroughly understand what the buyers are asking for.
During the negotiation process, consider us your trusted representatives. We will evaluate all the options and strategies, taking the market conditions, other offers, and your personal requirements into consideration.
04
Transaction Coordination
Now comes the critical period of the home selling process. We will be in close communication with the buyer’s agent and lender as well as our title team, ensuring important milestones are achieved and contract deadlines met along the way. We will work diligently to smooth out any bumps that might arise in our journey to closing.
05
Settlement
As a seller, your signing appointment may happen as early as a week in advance of closing. We will be checking in often with the buyer’s lender, ensuring their loan documents reach escrow in time for a smooth and on-time closing.
On closing day, documents are recorded with the County, proceeds are disbursed, and we will coordinate the key transfer to the buyers.

“Selling a home with Kristina was a delight! Her energy, knowledge of the MD/DC market, and expertise in negotiations helped us sell our home at a dream price. Even with her full book of business, she made us feel like we were her only clients, and we are so thankful for her guidance throughout the process.”
- Jon, Wesley Heights, DC
“Kristina spent significant time with us to explain every single detail about the offers we received, contingencies, the process, and promptly replied to any question we had about selling our Rockville home. She is very responsive and efficient. We were able to complete our selling process incredibly fast, even in the middle of a pandemic!”
